The Citation X holds the title of the fastest fully certified civilian aircraft, boasting a top cruising speed of 92% the speed of sound.
Computational Fluid Dynamics were employed during the design phase to optimize airflow and reduce drag.
With wings swept at an angle of 37%, the Citation X minimizes aerodynamic drag more than any other business jet.
Customized specifically for the Citation X, these engines provide over 6,700 pounds of thrust per engine, offering an unparalleled thrust-to-weight ratio and fuel efficiency in its class.
The Citation X impresses with a cruising speed of around 600 mph.
Capable of a 3,500-mile range, the aircraft also maintains fuel reserves sufficient for an alternate landing within 230 miles.
The aircraft can reach a maximum altitude of 51,000 feet, while maintaining a cabin pressure equivalent to 8,000 feet.
These additions can extend the range by another 200 miles and allow for even greater airspeeds.
The aircraft accommodates 9-12 passengers, typically configured in a twin club arrangement.
The cabin offers ample room for all passengers, stretching 24 feet and allowing for full stand-up capabilities.
A complete refreshment center, plush and wide seats, and a lavatory equipped with a flushing toilet, vanity, and washbasin ensure a luxurious travel experience.
Comparable to the storage space of a typical minivan, the compartment is both pressurized and heated.
Both the airframe and landing gear undergo stress tests, subjected to five times the stress of a standard lifetime.
The Citation X fleet has collectively traveled the distance to the sun and back, achieving one million landings in the process.
